Rug Care

How to Care for Your Art…

Each of my pieces is handmade, making every one truly unique. As they are carefully crafted by me, they are first and foremost intended as art.

However, some pieces—like my punch needle coasters—also have a functional purpose. If you plan to use them regularly, please read the care instructions below. ♡

Kats Korner coasters are handmade with care, making each one unique and delicate. While they are designed for functional use, they are still handcrafted pieces of art! To keep them looking their best, follow these care tips:

Handle with Care

  • These coasters are delicate, so avoid excessive pulling to help them keep their shape and durability.

Cleaning Tips

  • Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap—no scrubbing! A lint roller works wonders for picking up stray fibres and dust.

  • Do not machine wash, as this may cause fraying or distortion.

  • You can carefully snip any long or loose stitches, if possible you can also gently push them back through the cloth.

Using with Hot Drinks

  • Hot mugs may cause condensation. To prevent moisture from seeping through, let your mug cool slightly before placing it on the coaster.

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to heat, as it may affect the durability of the piece.

Moisture & Surface Protection

  • Keep dry—excess moisture can weaken the fibres and backing over time.

  • Always place your coaster on a dry surface to help maintain its integrity.

Safety First

  • Fabrics, yarn, and backing materials may be flammable. Keep away from candles, heaters, and open flames.

  • Keep out of reach from young children due to delicate handmade construction.

  • Some products contain small components (e.g., embellishments) that may pose a choking hazard. Keep away from young children and pets.

  •  Not a Toy: Unless specified otherwise, my products are for decorative or crafting purposes only and not intended for children's play.

Storage & Longevity

  • Store flat when not in use to maintain its shape.

  • Designed for decorative and light functional use—some wear and tear may occur over time with regular use.

Top Tip

  • If you want to protect your coaster even further, why not hang it on the wall, place it on a shelf or even frame it! Just because it is listed as a 'coaster' doesn't mean it has to be used as this  

Only use the product for its intended purpose. I am not responsible for any consequences if the product is altered in any way.
